On one of the days while He was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders confronted Him, and they spoke, saying to Him, “Tell us by what authority you are doing these things, or who is the one who gave you this authority?” Jesus answered and said to them, “I will also ask you a question, and you tell Me: Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?” They reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’ But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us to death, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.” So they answered that they did not know where it came from. And Jesus said to them, “Nor will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. For this, cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels. Nevertheless, neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord. For as the woman is of the man, even so, is the man also by the woman; but all things of God. Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman prays unto God uncovered? Do not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man has long hair, it is a shame unto him? But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and says to the men, Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? Then they went out of the city and came unto him. In the mean, while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat. But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that you know not of. And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
Luke 20:1-8;1 Cor. 11:9-15;John 4:28-32&39
How can they preach except they are sent? The waterpot didn't mean nothing to her anymore, she was sent. What is power but the authority? Only God's ordination. "His Holy Will"; Power with men and God and have prevailed. Who can say anything after that? Everything means nothing if I don't have you, Lord....Thank you, God for making me complete in Christ, ♫You satisfies my soul, Oh Yes, you satisfy my very soul, this wonderful salvation how it satisfies the soul.♫
